Paris on a September Afternoon





Yesterday was a Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad day (to borrow a phrase from Judith Viorst). I'll spare you the details, but suffice it to say that my not-so-friendly neighbor's comments were the last straw (I go to great lengths to ensure that when watering our outdoor plants I don't end up watering her windows below us, but it looks like I still have room for improvement).

So I dragged myself outside. And made my way here, to the garden of the Palais Royal. The soothing sunlight, splashing fountain, elegant architecture, bright flowers, and perfectly happy pigeons turned it into a Better than OK day. There are certain places in Paris that are simply magic, and this is one of them.
